Diary entries

June 2020

cool to cold morning, mostly sunny, but the wind a bit lazy

July 2013

cool overcast day

June 2013

Nice group of Darters and Cormorants drying their wings on the grass bank opposite, so must be plenty of little fish in the wetland (saw some caught by the birds).

May 2013

Little later this month than usual - couldn't be helped. Little later in the day too. Weather was kind though with nice sunny breaks, and no wind.

May 2013

mild morning, no wind, pair of little black cormorants were unusually inquisitive

April 2013

Pleasant morning, but then it has been like this for a while now, getting to low 30's each day. Water looked a little muddier than has been.

March 2013

another pleasant morning (best time of the day) - unfortunately had to pull out an unattended opera house net, not the first time at this site either, fortunately nothing caught in it.

February 2013

another lovely morning to be out and about

January 2013

pleasant enough morning, sunny patches through a cloudy sky, no wind, but also no rain for a while

December 2012

better weather to go out in, mild mid 20's, although has been a bit dry this last week

November 2012

pleasant morning, cool and overcast but no wind

October 2012

carp were quite active today splashing about in the surface reeds

September 2012

it has been a wet month, with water level still up a little

August 2012

mild sort of day, pleasant enough, nice to get out

July 2012

pleasant afternoon

June 2012

pleasant morning, bit cool but - has been a cool week with good rains earlier

May 2012

another nice day today, good to get outside into this fine autumn sunshine

April 2012

Nice sunny day today - will get a lot warmer (forecast top 30)

March 2012

Good to get back testing after the long Christmas (and sampling ban) break. First sampling after the extreme storms of Christmas Day. No sign of them at this site.
